Shopped at Walmart yesterday and watched the checker double bag almost everything with the customer in front if me. Nooo! When i told her i didn't need a bag cause i was putting the 3 items in my purse she seemed thrown off for a sec-
Danielle Fischer 7/08/2019 12:38 PMI had a similar experience. I told the checker I din't need a bag at the store and instead of just not using a bag she threw it away! It was completely bizarre.

Teresa Hepler 7/04/2019 10:28 AMIt's crazy how repulsed i am at the sight of a plastic bag. If i don't have my reusable bag at the store i just cram everything in my purse! Going to the lake Saturday for a paddleboard yoga class and going to see if classmates want to help pick up trash afterward -
